I put a coral beauty and three spot damsel from a friends tank into my mini reef. Two days later i saw the whitespot, like grains of sugar on his fins and face(the coral beauty). My fault, im spewin i messed up the QT rule. Anyway as soon as i saw it i scooped them both out into another tank(it wasnt empty, had to rearrange fish to fit them) and am treating it on my LFS advice, with vertaid( Quinine hydrochloride Malachite Green) and Tri Sulfa tablets(sulfadiazine,sulfadimidine,sulfamerazine) They said i only use the trisulfa twice (once then wait three days) and the vertaid every day and it shouldnt harm the biological filter. Do i need to treat my other fish too, they told me to put the treatments in my mini-reef but im a bit cautious. Should i put all fish in for treatment or wait and watch closely. This is the first time i have encountered a SW disease and im not happy about it.
